Contacting support

Can’t find the answer in these docs, or think something isn’t working as it should? We’re happy to help.

By Root supports Tread’s built-in features and settings, and fixes bugs in the theme’s own code.

  • Questions about Tread’s built-in features
  • Help with theme settings and setting up sections and blocks
  • Fixing bugs in an unmodified copy of the theme
  • Explaining what the theme can and can’t do, as described in these docs
  • Custom code, or problems caused by changes made to the theme’s code
  • Conflicts with third-party apps
  • Shopify’s checkout, which is part of Shopify rather than the theme
  • Shopify admin, account, payments, or store setup questions

For these, see Other help below, and we’ll point you in the right direction if you’re not sure.

Send us a request with the form below, or email us at hello@byroot.co.uk.

We reply to requests in the order they arrive, within 2 working days, Monday to Friday (UK time, excluding UK bank holidays).

The more of these you include, the less back-and-forth there is and the faster we can help:

  • Theme version — in your Shopify admin, go to Online Store → Themes. The version is shown next to the theme’s name.
  • Store URL — your your-store.myshopify.com address.
  • Collaborator request code — we need this to request access to your store. Find it in Settings → Users, under Collaborators.
  • Preview link — if the theme isn’t published, open its ⋯ menu in Online Store → Themes, choose Preview, then Share preview and copy the link.
  • What’s happening — the page it’s on, what you expected, and the steps to make it happen. Screenshots or a short screen recording help a lot. Paste a link to them, or email them to us after sending the form.
